Work From Home recorded as Sleep

Since COVID and my ability to work from home, my sleep log is completely wrong. I’m constantly deleting “naps” and adjusting my wake time. I make a point of moving around every hour, but still it’s recorded as sleep. Is anyone else having this problem?

Hello @MathTutor. Welcome to the community forums. 

 

Thank you for the detailed information and for the steps you've followed prior to posting. In this case, I'd suggest restarting your Fitbit device by following the instructions here: How do I restart my Fitbit device?

 

On a side note, if your body is almost at rest while working, (Working from a desk) then it could explain the reason why your Fitbit device might be tracking that as Sleep, but it actually should not happen and the Fitbit devices start tracking as you're asleep after you haven't moved for about an hour.

 

In this case, I'll suggest trying to change the Sleep Setting to see if that makes any change. Take into consideration that Normal mode works well when you make significant movements, so your device records time spent awake. This setting is appropriate for most users. In sensitive mode, your device records nearly all movements as time spent restless or awake.

 

  1. In the Fitbit app, tap the Today tab
    , then tap your profile picture.
  2. Tap Advanced Settings > Sleep Sensitivity and make your changes.

Hope this helps.
